COMEDIAN OF THE YEAR
Rhod Gilberts had a fantastic year. He's gone from relative obscurity to a huge force in British comedy, with his DVD selling buttloads. His Angry Welsh stage persona has captivated people around our small isle. On top of that, his DVD "Rhod Gilbert and the Award Winning Mince Pie" is probably one of the funniest DVDs released this year- you owe it to yourself to watch it.
ANIME SERIES OF THE YEAR
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is a reimagining of the original series, with the story sticking a lot closer to the manga. After a rushed start, the series has really picked up in the last 20 episode or so, with some amazing twists and top notch character development. The story has gone from "Okay for a shounen" to "Fucking amazing", making the series an easy pick for best anime this year.
EVENT OF THE YEAR
Due to illness, I didn't much enjoy the October expo. However, May 2009 was a fantastic time, and to date my favourite expo. Photographed a lot, lots of free hugs, and a great social experience. I can't wait until next May, where hopefully illness won't rear it's ugly head again.
